Nicholas, Canon of Eye, was brought before the Bishop of Norwich,1 and many witnesses being sworn against him, they appointed one to speak for them all. First, that on Easter day, all the Parish going of Procession, he went the contrary way, deciding them, and meeting them. He confessed it, and thought he did well therein.
